The Anarchic Consort
chapter-684

Zongzheng Wen Ren was no longer bragging as he watched the scene, feeling extremely humiliated.

Meanwhile, the son of King of Hell rubbed his chin before he narrowed his big amber-colored eyes and asked Helien Wei Wei, “Did you see his eyes just now?

“It was crimson.” Helian Weiwei said as she beckoned the hound over, “Blackie, come here.”

The Alsatian shook its head before it ran toward Helian Wei Wei. Just like before, it stood slightly left before her.

The son of King of Hell threw a glimpse at the Alsatian before he mumbled, “That is a sign of an infected soul. A soul that has been infected by an aura of resentment cannot enter the netherworld as the reapers are incapable of destroying them. You exorcists might be able to do it. But judging the situation, it is a major epidemic of soul infection. My father will definitely decide to close down the netherworld to protect the clean souls there. When that happens, the Path of Reincarnation would be rendered useless and all the unborn babies will become dummies without soul… ”

“You are saying that whoever bears a child within these years will give birth to fools?” Helian Weiwei frowned.

The son of King of Hell acknowledged before he flicked his fingers and opened his black notebook. He continued in a serious tone, “Once the Path of Reincarnation is locked down, dead souls will not be allowed to enter the netherworld and living souls will not be able to leave the netherworld or reborn as humans. Every child who’s born will remain an empty shell. However, things will worsen if the netherworld isn’t closed down. The humans will be wiped out immediately. You saw the infected soul just now that was denied entry into the Path of Reincarnation. To allow an infected soul into the netherworld, it is like releasing a virus into a crowd. The souls in the netherworld will be infected one after another, and none of them will be able to reincarnate. Once the netherworld is closed, we can only reopen it after five years. This is the rule of heaven and earth that no one can alter. You need to find the source of infection before my father returns to handle the turmoil and decides to shut down the netherworld!”

Five years?

Five years may be a short time to the ghosts of the netherworld.

But, how many five years does a human have in a lifetime?

If the Path of Reincarnation is closed for five years, it means that no child will be born within the next five years!

A deep furrow formed on Helian Weiwei’s brows. As a human, she could not accept the current situation.

Therefore, she had to figure out a way to change it.

“You mentioned about the source of the infection. Where is it?” Helian Wei Wei twitched the corner of her lips as she made a guess, “Is it within the human world?”

The son of King of Hell nodded. “My subordinates are still looking for its specific source, but there aren’t many of them from the netherworld who can sense the same in the human world. Besides Lord Bing and the rest, there are only my father and I…”

“I’ll find the source. You only have to take care of the netherworld and don’t allow any infected soul into the netherworld.” Helian Wei Wei interrupted him in an indifferent tone, “What do you think? Will you work with me?”

The son of King of Hell agreed, “Of course we welcome all aids. However, we do not have much time and you have to act quick! I will keep my father distracted for five days. Five days. We only have five days.”

“No problem.” Helian Wei Wei nodded after she gave it some thought.

Skeptical, the son of King of Hell raised his eyebrows. “Are you sure you can do that within five days?”

“Well, theoretically, the aura of resentment is generated to affect the seal. Since the Divine Exorcism Seal is in the Capital, the source of infection must be nearby. The two exorcists were only possessed by hostile ghosts after they arrived at the Capital. However, I could not comprehend what happened to Elder Xu Wu. You said that he should have died a few months ago. How had he been living until today?” Helian Wei Wei had analyzed the situation in details.

The son of King of Hell wore a wicked smile as he said, “I might be doubtful about our collaboration. But now, I am positive that you are the best candidate to investigate this case. I agree with you and also believe that the source of the infection is in the Capital. As for Elder Xu Wu, there’s nothing strange about his overdue death. If someone has been coveting the Divine Exorcism Seal, they must have planned this from the beginning. Someone must have done something to the elder.”

“I understand now.” Helian Wei Wei could almost identify the culprit. “Can you find Jing Wushuang’s name in the Book of Life and Death? I want to know more about this man.”

“Jing Wushuang?” The son of King of Hell flipped the book as he said, “Why does this name sound familiar? I’ve found it! He is a guardian of the Exorcising Tribe! I dislike the members of the Exorcising Tribe. Other than the Pei family, not a single one of them is stable.”

Helian Wei Wei replied in a composed manner, “Hmm, when he will die?”

The son of King of Hell answered, “He will never die. The guardians of the Exorcising Tribe are born to protect the Righteous Path of Heaven and Earth. As long as the Righteous Path exists, he will never die.”

“Protect the Righteous Path of Heaven and Earth?” Helien Wei Wei seemed to be unconcerned by these words. “Can’t your people locate him?”

The son of King of Hell shook his head. “The netherworld only manages the dead souls, not the living.”

“To be honest, what exactly do you do?” Helien Wei Wei was disappointed by his answer.

The son of King of Hell replied proudly, “We kill.”

Helian Wei Wei remained silent.

Regardless of the process, they finalized their plan anyway.

After Helian Wei Wei finished, she turned around. Her gaze immediately met Baili Jia Jue’s. The ministers were all kneeling behind him. He had finished his task and casually tossed his blood-stained robe to a nearby eunuch. His initial elegance was now replaced by an unruly calmness. His transquil and black eyes carried a different kind of charm. “Come here when you’re done. You will become stupid if you mix around with the people of the netherworld too frequently. ”

Upon hearing this, the son of King of Hell whipped around and said to Helian Wei Wei, “If you really want to find the source, it’s better for you to not bring this Great Demon King along. His appearance will frighten the ghosts, not to mention the humans.”

“That’s alright. I can conceal his aura.” Helian Wei Wei had mastered the trick a long time ago.

The son of King of Hell was flustered. That was why he felt no threat when he was summoned. Now he understood how did the Great Demon King stand there without revealing his aura. They applied their contract to conceal his aura!

“Then, you should bring him along. He can handle everyone.” The son of King of Hell paused before he added, “But now, the most important thing is to locate the source of the infection. If you cannot find the source, everything will go in vain. The main culprit might Jing Wushuang, but he might not carry the source of infection. At most, he may be the enchanter. We must find out who he has been messing with…”
